[quote=Anonymous]Watching a clothing commerical with my DD the other day, a model strutted down the street in amazingly high, platform shoes. I said to my daughter, "it doesn't look like those shoes would be very easy, or comfortable, to walk in. She replied, "beauty hurts". I felt my heart sink. How could my girl have learned that already? That she has to endure pain to be "pretty"? That makes me so sad. Even as I strap on my own high heels (Ok they are not platforms) and march off to work, eyebrows waxed, spanx tight. Suffice to say the TV's been unplugged since. Just a vent, I guess.[/quote]
